It is not the Court’s job to manage the election cycles.

The Court’s job is to uphold the Constitution.

He violated his oath.

And not like the four leftist hacks he did it with willingly and knowingly.

First of all, all law is a matter of interpretation, and tactic.

This law, like it or not, is still in the courts, and under far better circumstances...for a favorable decision.

Striking it down on Commerce Clause grounds alone, served no good purpose, except to empower the President.

And the view of Defending the Constitution, while leaving the Voters that empowered this free from their own idiocy, seems ill conceived...

As Krauthammer pointed out, the Job of the C.J. is also the stewardship of the court, and damaging the validity of the institution, a coequal branch of Government, does not defend the Constitution, when it’s just as beneficial to return a political question to the body politic, while keeping a much larger club in the bag.

In all the hysteria, it’s overlooked that the coming questions on this act are far more blatantly unconstitutional
